I am trying to get my brain around Laravel by trying to follow the tutorial here http://alexsears.com/tutorial/create-admin-interface-laravel

I followed everything specifically and even copied the code from github and still have this issue. I go to the login page and no matter what I put in, it just redirects to that page. No errors, no login, etc. I believe it may be a routeing issue but this newb can't figure it out.

Any help would be appreciated.

index.blade.php

@extends('layouts.master')

@section('title') Login @stop

@section('content')

<div class='col-lg-4 col-lg-offset-4'>

    @if ($errors->has())
        @foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
            <div class='bg-danger alert'>{{ $error }}</div>
        @endforeach
    @endif

    <h1><i class='fa fa-lock'></i> Login</h1>

    {{ Form::open(['role' => 'form']) }}

    <div class='form-group'>
        {{ Form::label('username', 'Username') }}
        {{ Form::text('username', null, ['placeholder' => 'Username', 'class' => 'form-control']) }}
    </div>

    <div class='form-group'>
        {{ Form::label('password', 'Password') }}
        {{ Form::password('password', ['placeholder' => 'Password', 'class' => 'form-control']) }}
    </div>

    <div class='form-group'>
        {{ Form::submit('Login', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) }}
    </div>

    {{ Form::close() }}

</div>

@stop
